Coalescer filter is a type of internally mounted coalescer filter element, made of materials such as micro-fiberglass, synthetic fibers, and thermoplastic resins. Its primary function is to separate liquid droplets and aerosols from gas and liquids. Each coalescer filter material has a range of filtering grades for various coalescer filter element functions and media and is specifically designed to meet application requirements.
It can be used to separate different petroleum-based liquids, such as hydraulic fluid, jet fuel, and others by removing water. This ensures the best possible fuel efficiency and operation of industrial equipment, motor vehicles, and generators. In addition, the coalescer filter element can be used to remove oil and water aerosols from compressed air systems. To prevent the coalescer filter element from clogging and restricting air or liquid flow, it is critical to ensure that your system has the right type of filtration configuration. Coalescer filter elements can operate alone or can be integrated into complex separation systems, depending on the application and filter media.
Different from traditional particulate filtration, which removes solid contaminants from gas or liquids. The coalescing filtration has two steps to remove undesirable substances.
Coalescer filters are used in a wide range of applications, including fuel filtering, petrochemical refining, oil and gas activities, and petrochemical operations. They can be employed in oil and gas refining systems to separate gas and liquid to create high-purity end products. Additionally, coalescer filter elements are employed to safeguard oil and gas refining machinery against water vapor, which can corrode pipes, storage bins, and other vital pieces of machinery. They can be utilized in practically any filtering system that needs to remove submicron liquid droplets and aerosols, including the cabin pressurization systems for airplanes.
Filtration is an important part of many industries, which can not be ignored. As one of the essential filtration systems, coalescing filtration is needed in many oil, gas, and liquid industries. It does fine filtration with 2 phases, coalescing droplets, and aerosols, and then removing them. Boedon has years of filtration experience and can manufacture replacement coalescer filter elements for various brands, like Kaydon.
